What does it mean to patriate a document and why is the patriation of Canada's constitution a significant step in our nation's history?

To patriation of a document is essentially 'returning it home'. The patriation of the Canadian constitution was a very significant step in Canada's national history because it was a large legal extirpation of Britain's power over Canada's constitution. Prior to patriation, Canadian officials were not able to amend the fundamental laws by which we are all governed, and patriation included an amending formula. The amending mechanism ensured that in the future Canadian government would have the authority to change and adapt its constitution should the need arise. By having the power to determine the laws by which all Canadians must abide by, it helped further distance Canadians from the British, and further develop a sense of national identity.

Why did Pierre Trudeau have to go to England to ratify the constitution?

Pierre Trudeau went to England to ratify the Canadian Constitution in 1982 because Canada needed the British Parliament's approval to patriate its Constitution. The process involved amending the British North America Act of 1867, as Canada required formal permission to enact changes to its own constitutional framework. Trudeau's visit culminated in the signing of the Constitution Act, which included the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, marking a significant step in Canada's legal independence. This event symbolized the final stage of Canada's evolution from a British colony to a fully sovereign nation.
